LOTD: Look of the Day, Purple Neon Duochrome Smokey Sultry Look

LOTD: Look of the Day, Purple Neon Duochrome Smokey Look the beauty breakdown
My look of the day! A little more makeup than I usually wear, but I wanted to do something fun with my makeup today! Here's what I used and did!

First, I applied my normal foundation and put foundation over my eyelids as a base. I use the Neutrogran Healthy Skin Foundation in "70 Fresh Beige". I used the Maybelline Fit Me Concealer in "Medium". Next, I set all that with my Covergirl Professional Loose Powder in "Translucent Medium".

After I filled in my eyebrows, I started applying the eyeshadow! It's a pretty simple look :)
I put NYX jumbo eyeshadow pencil in "Milk" on my eyelid as a base so the colors would pop.
I placed this color below in the crease. It's a matte light brown color. 

I pack this color all over my lid. It's a really pretty hot purple color with a pinkish/blue duochrome finish. 

This color is a duochrome as well. It's a shimmery white color with a lavender duochrome. This went on the inner part of my eyelid and I also carried it into my tear duct area and along the inner third of my lower lash line.  

I took this medium matte brown eyeshadow color and layered it into the crease. This darkens the look and makes it a little more smokey. It also helps add dimension!

Finally, I took this matte eggplant color and put it in the outer corner of the eye. I also placed this along my lower lash line. 

To finish the whole look off, I just apply a quick cat eye and then a couple coats of mascara :) Tweet me a pic if you try this look! (@morgansbbd)

Glittery Plum Nails for Spring!

Monday, March 10, 2014

So these are the nails I'm wearing this week!
Glittery Shimmer Plum Nails for Spring

Step 1: I started off with nice clean nails that I filed to the length and shape I like.

Step 2: I painted my nails with OPI's "Anti-Bleak". I think this plum/orchid color is one of my favorites colors now! (haha ignore the fact that I got some paint on my cuticles. I ALWAYS do this and just figure it'll eventually come off my skin after I was my hands a couple times.)

Step 3: I waited a little for the base color to dry then painted a coat of Wet N' Wild's "469 Hallucinate". On a side note, I love this multi-colored glitter. It gives a super glitter-y finish in one coat!
